Your medical elective should be an experience of a lifetime
As part of your training, you have a four-to-eight week window to travel anywhere in the world and get some clinical experience in any medical field that interests you.
If you do want to make a difference or want to practise medicine with only your medical knowledge and your stethoscope, then volunteering in an overseas hospital or clinic is the way to go.
But where do you start when trying to plan such a trip?
Approaching a medical elective is like anything else in medicine; it requires research. And in terms of researching medical electives, this book is your 'go to' text.
Karin Eurell is a professional organiser of electives. She has learnt by trial and error what is essential, and what isn't.
Anatomy of an Awesome Medical Elective guides you through each of the critical questions that must be answered for you to make the most of your overseas elective.

Описание: Dark Shadows is a compelling portrait of Kazakhstan, a country that is little known in the West. Strategically located in the heart of Central Asia, sandwiched between Vladimir Putin’s Russia, its former colonial ruler, and Xi Jinping’s China, this vast oil-rich state is carving out its place in the world as it contends with its own complex past and present. Journalist Joanna Lillis paints a vibrant picture of this emerging nation through vivid reportage based on 13 years of on-the-ground coverage, and travels across the length and breadth of this enigmatic country that lies along the ancient Silk Road and at the geopolitical and cultural crossroads where East meets West. Featuring tales of murder and abduction, intrigue and betrayal, extortion and corruption, this book explores how a president, Nursultan Nazarbayev, transformed himself into a potentate and the economically-struggling state he inherited at the fall of the USSR into a swaggering 21st-century monocracy. A colourful cast of characters brings the politics to life: from strutting oligarch to sleeping villagers, from principled politicians to striking oilmen, from crusading journalists to courageous campaigners. Traversing dust-blown deserts and majestic mountains, taking in glitzy cities and dystopian landscapes, Dark Shadows conjures up Kazakhstan as a living, breathing place, full of extraordinary people living extraordinary lives.

Описание: Elective Affinities was written when Goethe was sixty and long established as Germany's literary giant. This is a new edition of his penetrating study of marriage and passion, bringing together four people in an inexorable manner. The novel asks whether we have free will or not and confronts its characters with the monstrous consequences of repressing what little real life they have in themselves, a life so far removed from their natural states that it appears to them as something terrible and destructive.

Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, voluminous notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
